Mouse Osteocalcin (OC) ELISA Kit

Osteocalcin is a vitamin K-dependent non-collagenous protein deposited into the bone matrix by osteoblasts, and circulating levels are widely used as a biomarker of bone formation in laboratory research. The Assay Genie Mouse Osteocalcin ELISA Kit enables quantification of this marker in samples derived from mice, with reactivity validated across tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernatants, serum, and plasma. Investigators in skeletal biology, endocrinology, and metabolic disease use the kit to monitor bone turnover in models of osteoporosis, fracture repair, glucocorticoid-induced bone loss, and the endocrine functions of osteocalcin in glucose and energy homeostasis. The kit format provides all essential reagents — microplate, antibody reagents, standards, and buffers — needed to generate a standard curve and interpolate unknown sample concentrations using a standard laboratory plate reader. All components are supplied for research use only and are intended for in vitro laboratory investigations of mouse bone and mineral metabolism.
